1921ref. 100261Milano January 15 1921. 1921. Very good. - Over 60 words penned in Italian on 10-1/2 inch high by 8-1/4 inch wide cream "Via Verdi 4 Milano" stationery. Puccini writes to the publishers Fratelli Treves on behalf of his friend the writer Enrico Pea. He addresses Guido Treves the nephew of the firm's founder Emilio Treves who took over the company upon Emilio's death in 1916. Guido Treves ran the company with his wife Antonietta. Puccini writes that there is a manuscript awaiting publication at Treves' house. It is from his dear friend the Apuan region poet Enrico Pea. He asks that publication be expedited as there is a second volume ready for print. Puccini states that he wrote to Beltrami Giovanni Beltrami the managing director at Fratelli Treves who promised that it would be published soon. Signed "tuo yours G. Puccini" followed by his regards to Guido's wife. Folded horizontally and vertically for mailing the letter is slightly creased at the corners with a couple of minuscule chips to the edges. Once mounted there are remnants of archival tape along the top edge of the verso. Giacomo Puccini often enjoyed a table at the Antico Caffe di Simo in Lucca with his friend Enrico Pea. The book being discussed by Puccini is without doubt the first volume in Pea's "Trilogia del Moscardino" simply titled "Moscardino" published by Fratelli Treves in 1922. The book was translated into English by Ezra Pound. It was reviewed in the January 1 2005 edition of the New York Review of Books: "A small masterpiece Pea's lyrical autobiographical novel paints a fiery and intimate portrait of an old man through the brushstrokes of his grandson. The passions and tensions between the old eccentric and his brothers play themselves out in mythical sketches before a vivid backdrop of the hills of Lunigiana. Moscardino the first novella of his tetralogy Il romanzo di Moscardino is anarchic and haunting. Pound conducts Pea's vernacular song allowing images to flow from the land the flesh and beyond." Little needs to be said about the life of the great Italian opera composer Giacomo Puccini 1858-1924 who composed several of the best known Italian operas. His works include "Manon Lescaut" "La Boheme" "Madama Butterfly" and "Turandot" among many other works. The Italian poet novelist playwright and theatre impressario Enrico Pea 1881-1958 produced literary works that are said to be divided into two periods. The first being that of "Moscardino" and the second beginning with "Il Figlioccia" which takes on a softer delicate modulated style. Milano, January 15, 1921.

Long thorough order with instructions for delivery casting light on the logistical problems encountered in international trade in nineteenth-century Europe.

1934ref. 34092Ridley Park PA: December 17th 1934. 1934. Very good. - 89 words typed on a sheet of his gray personalized letterhead 5 inches high by 8 inches wide with his address printed down the right margin. Signed "Guido Bruno". Folded once for mailing. Near fine. Bruno's letter is sending examples of his work to a "Mr. Fuller". We speculate that this might be Buckminster Fuller who was not yet an architect at this time and who lived in Greenwich Village and knew the same people and frequented the same clubs and bars as Guido Bruno. "Here then you have the result of your imprudent praize sic of a writer's work. It should you sic teach you a lesson never to encourage a scribbler's vanity. The few little volumes may amuse you for a few minutes whenever you find time to glanze sic through their pages." Guido Bruno 1884-1942 who at this date had moved to Ridley Park Pennsylvania where his adopted daughter lived was a well known Greenwich Village character and small-press publisher sometimes called "the Barnum of Bohemia". He was based at his "Garret on Washington Square" where tourists could pay an admission fee to observe "genuine Bohemian" artists at work. From the garret he published little magazines such as Bruno's Weekly Bruno's Monthly Bruno's Bohemia and Bruno Chap Books. Among authors he published were Alfred Kreymborg Djuna Barnes Marianne Moore Alfred Douglas and Sadakichi Hartmann. He was also a close associate of Frank Harris. For a brief time he operated the Little Thimble Theater with Charles Edison. Ridley Park, PA: December 17th, 1934. unknown

Fifteen lines boldly penned with several flourishes signed "Christophorus Popel Barro a Lobcowicz" by Christoph Popel Baron of Lobkowicz who was Chief Steward of Bohemia under the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II. The document is further annotated with 8 lines penned across the center of the verso with an unidentified signature and another 8 lines penned vertically on the verso above the center panel also with an unidentified signature. The faint remnants and outline of a red wax seal are centered at the top and bottom edges of the verso. Folded twice vertically and four times horizontally with several tears along the folds. There is some foxing present especially at the top and bottom. Good. The Chief Steward of Bohemia under Emperor Rudolf II Christoph Popel Baron of Lobkowicz 1549-1609 was a close friend of the celebrated court painter Hans von Aachen.
